1921, the Winterboro Masonic Lodge was situated near the intersection of Alabama Highways 21 and 76. This spot was historically significant as the northern terminus of the 1850s Central Plank Road, a 60-mile toll road made of wooden planks.

The Masonic meetings stopped in 1957. In 2002, the State Historical Commission asked the Winterboro Educational Foundation to save the building from a highway widening project. The lodge was moved and restored in September 2003, renamed in honor of A.J. Powers, a local historian who guided the relocation.

Located at the corner of Battle and Spring Street, the nearly 50-year-old monument is one of the more recognizable structures in the city. Built in 1968, the monument was commissioned by Mayor J.L. Hardwick and designed by architect Philip W. Kessler. The Big Spring itself was initially at a major crossroads for the indigenous people of Talladega, and is near the site of the November 1813 battle of Fort Lashley.

The Isbell National Bank in Talladega is a rarity, having been constructed in 1869 entirely out of red-hued terracotta. The bank is believed to be one of only five remaining architectural terracotta buildings east of the Mississippi River. Merchant James Isbell founded the bank in 1848, making it the oldest continually operating bank in Alabama. It is now called the First Bank of Alabama.
